Winding Down

Spending a few last precious days at the beach with the kids, holding onto the last bit of summer. Teacher letters came last week, open houses are scheduled and on the calendar, and medical forms are printed out and heading to the pediatrician's office early this week (please tell me I'm not the only one who waits until the last minute for this). One last year of all 3 being in preschool...I am really going to try to cherish all of it before BIG school comes next fall!! Hope all of you are soaking up the last few days of summer!!

Blessings,
